the Kid just sent this thru and what better way to send the beautiful people of japan some good vibes, seems everyone i know at the moment is doing the right thing, take some time out for this well constructed mix.

word to the Kid K

A tribute mix for Japan. All Japanese music aside from a few tribute tracks.

Originally released as a promo only CD giveaway in celebration for the Hot Peas and Butta Tokyo party held in Japan back in September 2010 and mix by DJ Skeme Richards using all 7" original vinyl records. Due to the recent events in Japan, Hot Peas and Butta has teamed up with Record Breakin' Music to re-release this mix in the form of a download that includes the original artwork which can now be purchased. All proceeds will go to a charity to help the people of Japan deal with the unfortunate events that have struck them in the past few weeks.

We have kept the price of this download low and encourage everyone to support this cause. The people of Japan have supported Hip Hop, Funk, Soul, Rare Grooves and other musical genres that have originated in our country to the fullest. They need our support.

We thank you in advance for your contribution and we hope that you enjoy this mix as much as those in Japan have since getting their first taste of Hot Peas and Butta.

More than a year had passed since the debut 'Late Night Flights EP' was released. An incredible producer and musician I-Tone from a far Pacific coast opened his music and became an opening himself for all the fans of abstract instrumental hip-hop with a fresh light and a special air sounding. A bit later, Ritmo Sportivo presented a new 9-tracks work `Good Day` which became an I-Tone`s international visiting card. But now it's high time for the first serious album. LP with a mysterious name `13` will fully disclose the unchangeable source of his inspiration-the space. If you press play you will be immediately transferred there. I-Tone is breaking any stereotypes and adding to his cosmic symphonies the spirit of Asia, strange ambient sounds and unexpected old-school style acapellas. But there is one thing: all these ingredients create a unique style of I-Tone. You can call it smooth & chillin' shit, can fly faraway in your dreams with this music, diggin' the crates to find similar motives. But you just can't miss that. Possibly, you are in front of the most memorable musical journey in recent years

Orange Air is the debut of Ju-Ar, who has been working in the last couple of years together with his good friend under the name of ‘Truestatiks’.
The solo Album was planned a long time ago, but couldn’t be realized until last year.
Orange Air shows Ju-Ar’s point of view of music with a thoughtful use of vocal bits, instruments and samples inspired by the golden-era of jazz and soul completed by a warm reel 2 reel tape sound.

Om Unit is a music producer and DJ from London. He has been around for a long time working under the name ’2tall’ before where he got recognition as a competitive DJ, live performer and producer. Artists he collaborated with include Dudley Perkins, Georgia Anne Muldrow and Foreign Beggars.Under his new ego he now focuses on creating breathtaking atmospheric beats which could be best described as ‘post-genre’. In his own words:"Genres are like borders, rapidly becoming obselete when we see the world today as having an ever increasing merging of styles and influences. put simply, its electronic music."Om Unit will release a 12inch this month on Civil Records and he’ll surely perform some of those inspiring tunes down at the bassment.So don’t miss the Exciting when it comes to town! This will also be one of the last sessions at the Blumenbar on a thursday as we are moving to the Crux for our main sessions.
